be followed by their Main Points One (1 min), Two (1 min), and 

Three (1 min). 

3. While Team One is providing their Main Points, 

Team Two Team Members Assigned for Rebuttals will analyze 

their adversary's respective Main Point and develop a rebuttal 

response (1 min in length) to it. 

4. Then Team Two will give their Opening Statement (2 mins), to 

then be followed by their Main Points One (1 min), Two (1 min), 

and Three (1 min).

Scoring: Students will be scored based upon their ability to meet 

their time goals and the quality of the content of their public 

speaking responses. Meeting the time goal is a function of their 

preparation and rehearsing their part of the debate. The most 

challenging time constraint will be the student's assigned the 

rebuttals which need to be developed in a shorter amount of time. I 

will modify by scoring due to the rigor of this task accordingly.
